Disulfide cross-linked nanospheres from sodium alginate derivative for inflammatory bowel disease: Preparation, characterization, and in vitro drug release behavior
TL;DR: The size of the nanospheres increased because of the cleavage of disulfides within their network structures in 10 mM glutathione (GSH) solution, and the drug release in pH 6.0 buffer with GSH from drug-loaded nanosphere exhibited a marked increase, indicating that the Nanospheres may be used for colon-specific drug delivery.
